Does the default column Modified have anything to do with this? I haven't been using this column, but maybe it's there for a good reason I haven't been aware of?
When I periodically Save To Disk for library backup purposes, is it better to just Save To Disk into the same folder time after time? Or to a new folder each time to insure all the new metadata is captured in the saved library's book files?

will overwrite
will not delete old files that no longer exist because the (folder) name changed or were deleted from the Library.
A FULL backup should just copy the entire Library Folder with Calibre NOT RUNNING (to avoid any file locking issues).
